“I love the experience of the alternative dimension that water brings to things. On the surface, it’s very calm; underneath there’s an entire other world, an ecosystem.

I find being near the water absolutely essential in my work, which is why Hunters Point and the Bay are so important to me. ” – Linda Larson (Building 101, Studio 2514)
